About this card's market
The junk-wax era means supply is high, but that cuts both ways: raw copies are affordable entry points, while flawless graded examples stand out precisely because so many copies exist in lesser condition.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $23.77 and top grades reaching $249.12, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
When choosing a grader, PSA slabs typically resell fastest, BGS rewards truly pristine copies, and SGC/CGC offer faster turnarounds — compare each label's value in the grade table above.
Smart buying guide
The fastest way to gauge the real market for this card is to scan the live eBay listings above: look at the spread between auction and Buy-It-Now prices, and check sold history before paying top dollar.
